Systemic lupus erythematosus: a case report with unusual manifestations and favourable outcome after plasmapheresis

J Garcia-Consuegra et al. Eur J Pediatr. 1992 Aug.

Abstract

We report a case of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in a 15-year-old girl with severe neurological disease, platelet function disorder and pulmonary haemorrhage, which remitted after plasmapheresis. The patient developed protein-losing enteropathy shrinking lung, and acute pancreatitis with pseudocyst formation. These infrequent complication of SLE are discussed.
